    for the 1420 and I'd assume the rest of the line
    they said something about Centrino too.. I thought it was Core 2 Duo?

    Anyway it was a pretty cool commercial, other than the gay naked guy.. I think they have a pretty solid ad campaign for it

    "Centrino Duo" is the name they're using for "Santa Rosa," I believe.

    it's the newest intel's laptop platform code named SantaRosa and it's Napa's successor all under Centrino mark and it uses Crestline chipset 965 with support for 800 MHz FSB.

    has anyone else seen the commercial though? Are the colors accurate to what you see in the commercial?

    Gotta, say that is one awesomely fun commercial. 10x the creativity of the switch or get a mac adds which use retarded logic and subversive messages.

    I love this... its just honest... color is FUN!
